Osun Guber: PDP Group Constitutes Youth, Women Campaign Council 

A political support group, PDP New Generation, has constituted a 120-member Youth and Women Gubernatorial Campaign Council (YWGCC) for the July 16 governorship election in Osun State.

The group said its decision to come up with its own campaign council was “in line with the vision and mission of the PDP New Generation in creating a platform for youth and women participation and inclusion in political activities.”

YWGCC will help the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in the State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, in his campaigns for the Osun Government House ahead of the election.
